Will have to reply later when in front of a real computer and not using a phone running out of battery ;) Basically, my appliance plans got derailed due to the snowy code being too python 2.5+ specific and the fact that appliances still use python 2.4.
I'd love to provide for an automated build system for Snowy based the appliance model, but backporting code eventually became a nightmare for me.
If the code could be refactored and backported, I'll most definitely land a hand. Otherwise, translations would be next. ;)
Cheers,
Sent from my phone.

Hi Snowy Team!
Sandy and I had a brief chat around Snowy development and planning in
IRC this morning.
I have a lot of passion for Snowy (and Tomboy Online) but I'm not a
Python, Django or web services hacker. (Though I hope to help later
down the road with documentation and copy for the website).
If you're interested in helping with Snowy, please check the meeting
minutes from our last meeting in January.
Leon and others have been doing some great work on Snowy lately and
Sandy has some work stuff going on for the next couple week and then he
plans on reviewing the latest code changes and getting them merged into
Snowy's git repo.
I've volunteered to help out with some of administrative stuff - such as
scheduling the next meeting! I've created a Doodle link so if you're
interested in helping with Snowy and have time to take part in
development planning please pick some times from this link[1] that might
work for you so we can get the meeting scheduled.
In the meantime, I'd encourage you to use Snowy's Bugzilla[2] and add
to-do items, things you're working on, feature enhancements, security
reviews or any other tasks that come to mind that you want to help with
(and feel free to assign them to yourself too so we know who's doing
what!) We'll work on adding some components in Snowy's Bugzilla to help
with organization and workflow.
Lastly, for those trying and testing it out, any developer documentation
or installation howto's / tricks and trips would be a great addition to
the wiki[3].
If you have any questions or comments, please send them to the list! I
would love to see Tomboy Online ready at GNOME 3.0 as I can't imagine a
better time to launch (at least a beta version) of it with all the press
GNOME 3.0 will get.
Best,
Paul

Subject: Snowy / Tomboy Online Meeting Minutes 23JAN2010
Hi,
We had a Snowy status and planning meeting today in #snowy on GIMPNet
IRC. The meeting minutes are available[1] and the log is also attached
to this wiki page.
In the meeting, developers gave an update on where we are and what next
steps are. We're looking for volunteers to help! If you can help or
have questions, please email the Snowy mailing list.
Thanks everyone for coming and to all whom can help as we push forward
to launching Tomboy Online.
Paul
